Pursuant to the Severance Pay Law, 5723-1963

 

By virtue of my authority pursuant to section 14 of the Severance Pay Law, 5723-1963, (hereinafter: the “Law”), I authorize that payments made by the Employer as of the date of publication of this Certificate, for the Employee, into a comprehensive pension in an annuity fund which is not an insurance fund as defined in the Income Tax (Rules for Approval of and Management of Pension Funds) Regulations, 5724-1964 (hereinafter: a “Pension Fund”), or into an executive insurance policy which includes the ability to pay an annuity or a combination of payments into an annuity plan and a plan which is not an annuity plan, into such insurance fund (hereinafter: an “Insurance Fund”), including payments made by combining payments into a Pension Fund and an Insurance Fund, whether the Insurance Fund contains an annuity plan or not (hereinafter: “Employer Payments”) shall stand in lieu of the severance pay owing on the Salary out of which the aforesaid payments are made, and for the period paid (hereinafter: the “Severance Salary”), provided that all of the above exist:

 

1.	Employer’s payments –

 

	(a)	Into a Pension Fund shall be no less than 141/3% of the Severance Salary or 12% of the Severance Salary if the Employer also makes payments for the Employee, in addition to the above, for supplementation of severance pay into a severance pay pension fund or an Insurance Fund in the Employee’s name in the rate of 21/3% of the Severance Salary. Where the Employer has not paid the aforesaid 21/3% in addition to the 12%, the Employer’s payments shall stand in lieu of 72% of the Employee’s severance pay only;
	(b)	Into an Insurance Fund are no less than one of the following:

 

	(1)	131/3% of the Severance Salary, if the Employer pays for the Employee, in addition to the above, for monthly salary assurance in the event of loss of capacity to work, under a plan approved by the Commissioner for Capital Markets, Insurance and Savings at the Ministry of Finance, in the rate required to assure 75% of the Severance Salary at least, or in the rate 21/2% of the Severance Salary, whichever is the lesser (hereinafter: “Payment for Insurance of Loss of Capacity to Work”);
	(2)	11% of the Severance Salary, if the Employer also makes payment for insurance for loss of capacity to work, in which case the Employer’s payments shall be in lieu of 72% of the Employee’s severance pay, only; should the Employer make payments to supplement severance pay in addition to the above into a Pension Fund or Insurance Fund for severance pay in the Employee’s name, in the rate of 21/3% of the Severance Salary, the Employer’s payments shall be in lieu of 100% of the Employee’s severance pay.

 

2.	No more than 3 months after the commencement of the Employer’s payments, a written agreement is entered into between the Employer and the Employee containing:

 

	A.	The Employee’s consent to an arrangement under this Authorization in a form setting out the Employer’s payments to the Pension Fund or Insurance Fund, as the case may be; such agreement shall also contain the wording of this Authorization;
	B.	A waiver by the Employer in advance of any right that it may have to restitution of the monies from its payments, unless the Employee’s right to severance pay is repudiated in a judgment under sections 16 and 17 of the Law, and to the extent so repudiated, or that the Employee has withdrawn monies from the Pension Fund or the Insurance Fund not due to an entitling event; in this regard, “entitling event” – death, disability or retirement at the age of 60 or more.
	C.	This Authorization shall not derogate from an employee’s right to severance pay under the Law, under a collective agreement, extension order or employment contract, in respect of salary above the exempt salary.
